## Member Typedef Documentation

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

XercesEntityBridge::XercesEntityBridge ( | const DOM_EntityType & theXercesDOMEntity,
| const XercesBridgeNavigator & theNavigator )

virtual XercesEntityBridge::~XercesEntityBridge ( | )`[virtual]`

## Member Function Documentation

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::appendChild ( | XalanNode * newChild )`[virtual]`

Adds the node `newChild` to the end of the list of children of this node.

If the `newChild` is already in the tree, it is first removed.

Parameters:

  newChild | The node to add.If it is a `DocumentFragment` object, the entire contents of the document fragment are moved into the child list of this node

Returns:
  The node added.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XercesEntityBridge * XercesEntityBridge::cloneNode ( | bool deep ) const`[virtual]`

Returns a duplicate of this node.

This function serves as a generic copy constructor for nodes.

The duplicate node has no parent ( `parentNode` returns `null`.).
Cloning an `Element` copies all attributes and their values, including those generated by the XML processor to represent defaulted attributes, but this method does not copy any text it contains unless it is a deep clone, since the text is contained in a child `Text` node. Cloning any other type of node simply returns a copy of this node.

Parameters:

  deep | If `true`, recursively clone the subtree under the specified node; if `false`, clone only the node itself (and its attributes, if it is an `Element`).

Returns:
  The duplicate node.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanNamedNodeMap * XercesEntityBridge::getAttributes ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets a `NamedNodeMap` containing the attributes of this node (if it is an `Element`) or `null` otherwise.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanNodeList * XercesEntityBridge::getChildNodes ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets a `NodeList` that contains all children of this node.

If there are no children, this is a `NodeList` containing no nodes. The content of the returned `NodeList` is "live" in the sense that, for instance, changes to the children of the node object that it was created from are immediately reflected in the nodes returned by the `NodeList` accessors; it is not a static snapshot of the content of the node. This is true for every `NodeList`, including the ones returned by the `getElementsByTagName` method.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::getFirstChild ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the first child of this node.

If there is no such node, this returns `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

IndexType XercesEntityBridge::getIndex ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Puts all `DOM_Text` nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this `DOM_Node`, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only markup (e.g., tags, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates `DOM_Text` nodes, i.e., there are no adjacent `DOM_Text` nodes.

This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations (such as XPointer lookups) that depend on a particular document tree structure are to be used.

Note: In cases where the document contains `DOM_CDATASections`, the normalize operation alone may not be sufficient, since XPointers do not differentiate between `DOM_Text` nodes and `DOM_CDATASection` nodes.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::getLastChild ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the last child of this node.

If there is no such node, this returns `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getLocalName ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Returns the local part of the qualified name of this node.

For nodes created with a DOM Level 1 method, such as `createElement` from the `DOM_Document` interface, it is null.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getNamespaceURI ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Get the namespace URI of this node, or `null` if it is unspecified.

This is not a computed value that is the result of a namespace lookup based on an examination of the namespace declarations in scope. It is merely the namespace URI given at creation time.

For nodes of any type other than `ELEMENT_NODE` and `ATTRIBUTE_NODE` and nodes created with a DOM Level 1 method, such as `createElement` from the `Document` interface, this is always `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::getNextSibling ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the node immediately following this node.

If there is no such node, this returns `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

virtual const XalanDOMString& XercesEntityBridge::getNodeName ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

NodeType XercesEntityBridge::getNodeType ( | ) const`[virtual]`

An enum value representing the type of the underlying object.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getNodeValue ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the value of this node, depending on its type.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getNotationName ( | ) const`[virtual]`

For unparsed entities, the name of the notation for the entity.

For parsed entities, this is `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanDocument * XercesEntityBridge::getOwnerDocument ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the `DOM_Document` object associated with this node.

This is also the `DOM_Document` object used to create new nodes. When this node is a `DOM_Document` or a `DOM_DocumentType` which is not used with any `DOM_Document` yet, this is `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::getParentNode ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the parent of this node.

All nodes, except `Document`, `DocumentFragment`, and `Attr` may have a parent. However, if a node has just been created and not yet added to the tree, or if it has been removed from the tree, a `null` DOM_Node is returned.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getPrefix ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Get the namespace prefix of this node, or `null` if it is unspecified.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::getPreviousSibling ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Gets the node immediately preceding this node.

If there is no such node, this returns `null`.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getPublicId ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Get the public identifier of this notation.

If the public identifier was not specified, this is `null`.

Returns:
  Returns the public identifier of the notation

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

const XalanDOMString & XercesEntityBridge::getSystemId ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Get the system identifier of this notation.

If the system identifier was not specified, this is `null`.

Returns:
  Returns the system identifier of the notation

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

DOM_EntityType XercesEntityBridge::getXercesNode ( | ) const`[]`

Get the Xerces node this instance represent.

Returns:
  The Xerces node

bool XercesEntityBridge::hasChildNodes ( | ) const`[virtual]`

This is a convenience method to allow easy determination of whether a node has any children.

Returns:
  `true` if the node has any children, `false` if the node has no children.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::insertBefore ( | XalanNode * newChild,
| XalanNode * refChild )`[virtual]`

Inserts the node `newChild` before the existing child node `refChild`.

If `refChild` is `null`, insert `newChild` at the end of the list of children.
If `newChild` is a `DocumentFragment` object, all of its children are inserted, in the same order, before `refChild`. If the `newChild` is already in the tree, it is first removed. Note that a `DOM_Node` that has never been assigned to refer to an actual node is == null.

Parameters:

  newChild | The node to insert.
  refChild | The reference node, i.e., the node before which the new node must be inserted.

Returns:
  The node being inserted.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

bool XercesEntityBridge::isIndexed ( | ) const`[virtual]`

Puts all `DOM_Text` nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this `DOM_Node`, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only markup (e.g., tags, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates `DOM_Text` nodes, i.e., there are no adjacent `DOM_Text` nodes.

This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations (such as XPointer lookups) that depend on a particular document tree structure are to be used.

Note: In cases where the document contains `DOM_CDATASections`, the normalize operation alone may not be sufficient, since XPointers do not differentiate between `DOM_Text` nodes and `DOM_CDATASection` nodes.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

bool XercesEntityBridge::isSupported ( | const XalanDOMString & feature,
| const XalanDOMString & version ) const`[virtual]`

Tests whether the DOM implementation implements a specific feature and that feature is supported by this node.

Parameters:

  feature | The string of the feature to test. This is the same name as what can be passed to the method `hasFeature` on `DOMImplementation`.
  version | This is the version number of the feature to test. In Level 2, version 1, this is the string "2.0". If the version is not specified, supporting any version of the feature will cause the method to return `true`.

Returns:
  Returns `true` if the specified feature is supported on this node, `false` otherwise.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

void XercesEntityBridge::normalize ( | )`[virtual]`

Puts all `DOM_Text` nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this `DOM_Node`, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only markup (e.g., tags, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates `DOM_Text` nodes, i.e., there are no adjacent `DOM_Text` nodes.

This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations (such as XPointer lookups) that depend on a particular document tree structure are to be used.

Note: In cases where the document contains `DOM_CDATASections`, the normalize operation alone may not be sufficient, since XPointers do not differentiate between `DOM_Text` nodes and `DOM_CDATASection` nodes.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::removeChild ( | XalanNode * oldChild )`[virtual]`

Removes the child node indicated by `oldChild` from the list of children, and returns it.

Parameters:

  oldChild | The node being removed.

Returns:
  The node removed.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

XalanNode * XercesEntityBridge::replaceChild ( | XalanNode * newChild,
| XalanNode * oldChild )`[virtual]`

Replaces the child node `oldChild` with `newChild` in the list of children, and returns the `oldChild` node.

If `newChild` is a `DOM_DocumentFragment` object, `oldChild` is replaced by all of the `DOM_DocumentFragment` children, which are inserted in the same order.

If the `newChild` is already in the tree, it is first removed.

Parameters:

  newChild | The new node to put in the child list.
  oldChild | The node being replaced in the list.

Returns:
  The node replaced.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

void XercesEntityBridge::setNodeValue ( | const XalanDOMString & nodeValue )`[virtual]`

Sets the value of the node.

Any node which can have a nodeValue (

See also:
  getNodeValue()) will also accept requests to set it to a string. The exact response to this varies from node to node -- Attribute, for example, stores its values in its children and has to replace them with a new Text holding the replacement value.

For most types of Node, value is null and attempting to set it will throw DOMException(NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR). This will also be thrown if the node is read-only.

Reimplemented from XalanEntity.

void XercesEntityBridge::setPrefix ( | const XalanDOMString & prefix )`[virtual]`

Set the namespace prefix of this node.

Note that setting this attribute, when permitted, changes the `nodeName` attribute, which holds the qualified name, as well as the `tagName` and `name` attributes of the `DOM_Element` and `DOM_Attr` interfaces, when applicable.

Note also that changing the prefix of an attribute, that is known to have a default value, does not make a new attribute with the default value and the original prefix appear, since the `namespaceURI` and `localName` do not change.

Parameters:

  prefix | The prefix of this node.

Exceptions:

  DOMException

  INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified prefix contains an illegal character.
  NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
  NAMESPACE_ERR: Raised if the specified `prefix` is malformed, if the specified prefix is "xml" and the `namespaceURI` of this node is different from "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace", if specified prefix is "xmlns" and the `namespaceURI` is neither `null` nor an empty string, or if the `localName` is `null`.
